    Sáng lập/Founders, Engaging With Vietnam

    The 13th Engaging With Vietnam (EWV) Conference will be held from 01-06 August 2023 in Huế, Vietnam

    Jointly organized by Engaging With Vietnam, the Department of Culture and Sports under Thua Thien Hue People’s Committee, the International School – Hue University, and other local and international entities. We will announce these entities shortly.

    The Engaging With Vietnam conference series has always focused on the issue of knowledge production. We are interested in understanding the various types of knowledge that are produced on all topics related to Vietnam, and in exploring the factors that influence the formation of specific types of knowledge.

    For the 14th Engaging with Vietnam conference, we will continue this approach by examining the complex and diverse topic of heritage.

    Heritage is an essential part of our identity, history, and culture. It shapes our communities, influences our daily lives, and inspires our future. However, heritage is not static. It evolves, adapts, and responds to the changing social, economic, and political contexts. To explore the dynamic nature of heritage and its role in shaping people’s relationship with the past, the 14th Engaging with Vietnam conference will take as its theme “Living with Heritage, (Re)Creating Heritage: Vietnam and the World.”

    Living with Heritage, (Re)Creating Heritage: Vietnam and the World

    Here we should note that we wish to understand “heritage” in its broadest possible sense. We see heritage as not only a set of tangible and intangible cultural, natural, and historical resources that have been inherited from the past, but new phenomena, from artistic works to 3D models, that can be created in the present and that are meant to serve as a form of heritage as well.

    In addition, the sub-title, “Vietnam and the World,” is meant to be understood in varied ways. For example, first, understandings of heritage in Vietnam cannot be understood without reference to global institutions and discourses that address heritage in all of its forms. In other words, it is often impossible to talk about heritage in Vietnam without reference to issues in the larger world of heritage creation, preservation, promotion, and management at the global level.

    Second, Engaging with Vietnam always welcomes scholarship on places other than Vietnam as we strongly believe that knowledge of one’s own topic of study is always enriched and strengthened by knowledge of work on similar topics from other parts of the world. We, therefore, welcome submissions by scholars working on other parts of the world whose topics address the conference theme.

    Here are some general topics that we hope scholars will address:

    1. Living with Heritage: Explore the ways in which communities and individuals interact with heritage in their daily lives. Examine the challenges and opportunities of preserving and adapting heritage across time, space, community, context, and knowledge system.

    2. (Re)Creating Heritage: Investigate the processes of heritage (re)creation, interpretation, and representation. Explore the role of heritage in constructing and negotiating identity, memory, and meaning.

    3. Heritage, Identity, and Belonging: Examine the relationship between heritage and identity in the contemporary world. Explore the ways in which heritage shapes our sense of belonging and our relationships with others.

    Finally, while we will particularly welcome proposals that address the conference theme, as the only annual multi-disciplinary conference on Vietnam in the world, we also welcome proposals on all topics in the Social Sciences, Humanities, and the Arts, Education, and Interdisciplinary Studies relating to Vietnam.

    Proposals

    Types of Proposals

    Deadline for Proposal Submissions: 10 May 2023
    Notification of Acceptance: 20 May 2023

    We welcome various types of proposals, from individual presentations to organized panels, or roundtable discussions and art exhibitions and film screenings.

    Note: participants at EWV 14 may only present one (1) paper, however, they may participate in another capacity in other forums, such as serving as a chair or discussant for an organized panel, or participating in a roundtable discussion, etc.

    You can always email us if you need more instructions or clarifications at engagingwithvietnam[at]gmail.com.

    Individual Presentations

    • Proposal submissions are in English or Vietnamese and no more than 300 words. Proposals for individual presentations can be single-authored or multi-authored.
    • Applicants are only allowed to submit one paper proposal. It is not permitted to submit two or more abstracts.
    • If accepted, only those who register can have their names listed in the program. This applies to all presentations, single-authored or multi-authored.
    • The EWV 14 Selection Committee will compile panels of 4 individual paper presenters. The time slot for a panel composed of individual papers is 120 minutes.
    • The organisers will assign a chair for each panel.
    • All individual proposals are to be submitted online using the link below.

    Panels

    • The conference also accepts proposal submissions for a panel session that discusses a related or common theme. This type of session provides panellists with the opportunity to plan ahead how to run the session and to coordinate presentations and discussion in a fruitful manner. It is encouraged that the panellists leave ample time for overall discussion and Q&A. Interacting with the audience is highly encouraged.
    • Proposals for a panel session are within 500 words, specifying the overall focus, key points and arguments, insights and methodological issues, and how each individual presentation is linked to the whole session. Together with this up to 500-word overall proposal, a up to 300-word proposal for each individual presentation is also required.
    • Panellists of each panel session usually propose a chair and a discussant at the time of submission. The chair is often the moderator as well. However, if the panellists need the conference to look for a suitable chair or discussant in case their chair or discussant cannot attend the conference, this could be arranged although not guaranteed.
    • A panel should be within a 120-minute time frame, and is consisting of no less than 4 related individual presentations. These individual presentations can be single-authored or multi-authored.
    • All proposals are to be submitted online using the link below.

    In-depth Roundtable Discussion Sessions

    • In-depth Roundtable Discussion is a form of academic discussion, which is often interactive, lively and in focus, and is led by a chair. Participants agree on a specific topic to discuss and debate. Each person is given equal right and time to participate, and as such no one should dominate the discussion. This format is facilitated and illustrated by the idea of a circular layout referred to in the term round table.
    • Proposals for this type of sessions are within 500 words, specifying the overall topic/issue, key points and what to be discussed and debated, and how each member contributes and what each brings to the whole discussion.
    • The maximum time for a Roundtable Discussion is 120 minutes, and the maximum number of members is 10 for each session. You may request multiple sessions if the number of participants is more than 10 and if the topic under discussion requires extensive engagement. We encourage general conference participants to attend this type of sessions, and therefore Roundtable Discussion members are asked to engage with the audience as much as possible during the session.
    • All proposals are to be submitted online using the link below.

    Dr. Stan BH Tan-Tangbau
    “I started my journey as a Vietnamologist in 1997 when I first carried out fieldwork in Dong Thap province to study how farmers were adapting to the market economy under the Doi Moi reforms. From there onward, my engagement with Vietnam has brought me to the uplands, beginning with the Central Highlands where I studied state and frontier formations during the coffee fever of the late 1990s and under the First Republic regime in the 1950s-60s. I eventually ended up in the Tay Bac uplands as I began a long undertaking to learn about the complex historical-geography of the Dian-Viet Railway corridor, which extended my engagement across the border in Yunnan, China.

    As fate would have it, I wound up spending my precious free evenings whenever I stopped over in Hanoi at Minh Jazz Club, which eventually led to a lifelong friendship with Quyen Van Minh and the jazz musicians in the capital. This friendship has so yielded two collaborative monographs, Playing Jazz in Socialist Vietnam: Quyen Van Minh and Jazz in Hanoi (2021) and Jazz in Socialist Hanoi: Improvisations between Worlds (2022).

    In between my work in Vietnam, I also began a life-long engagement with the Kachin people, having designed a public anthropology project inspired by decolonising methodologies and digital ethnography that was active for almost a decade called Kachin Life Stories. Drawing from this project, and with the hope of encouraging similar endeavours among our Vietnamese colleagues, in collaboration with my old friends Nguyen Van Chinh, Nguyen Truong Giang (both of VNU-USSH Hanoi), we organised an international conference on the possibilities of digital anthropology in 2018, in Hanoi. I hope to see more of such innovative research endeavours emerging from this EWV edition focusing on the theme of heritage.”

    Stan is currently an independent scholar. He has taught at the National University of Singapore, Ritsumeikan University, and RMIT University Vietnam.
